We go to London once a month
To Selectadisc in Soho
Buy Damaged Goods Records from the Rough Trade shop
That's just off Portobello
We check out the pages of the NME
To see who's playing at the Laurel Tree
And the Monarch
And the Dublin Castle

Our friends at school think we're not cool
'Cos we only ever talk about records
By groups that they've never heard of before
Who've never been played at the local disco
The Adidas and Nike kids
Don't know what they're saying when they call us gimps
'Cos we know that records are better than clothes

We go Camden Crawling once a year
Stay out past midnight, drink lots of beer
Be sick all over our fanzines on the train back home
